Represents a special CellStyle that combines several cell style effects to generate a new CellStyle object. This class cannot be inherited.

Public NotInheritable Class CombinedCellStyle 
   Inherits CellStyle

Dim instance As CombinedCellStyle

[TypeConverter("GrapeCity.Win.MultiRow.CombinedCellStyleConverter, GrapeCity.Win.MultiRow, Version=7.20.20141.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0f7a722ee3c2bdd9")]
public sealed class CombinedCellStyle : CellStyle

Remarks

This class allows you to combine two or more existing CellStyles without having to set properties one by one. You can combine any type of CellStyle including the CombinedCellStyle itself.

Be careful not to create a circular reference style or there may be unexpected results.

Example

The following code example shows how to combine two predefined CellStyles to generate the required CellStyle object. The program sets the RoundedBorder to alternating columns. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the NamedCellStyle class.

void SetBorderToAlternatingColumns(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            CellStyle borderCellStyle = new CellStyle();
            borderCellStyle.Border = new RoundedBorder(LineStyle.Thin, Color.Gray, 0.5f);

            CellStyle colorStyle = new CellStyle();
            colorStyle.BackColor = Color.Yellow;

            //The combinedCellStyle1 will merge borderCellStyle and AlternatingColumnsDefaultCellStyle.
            CombinedCellStyle combinedCellStyle1 = new CombinedCellStyle();
            combinedCellStyle1.Items.AddRange(new CellStyle[] { borderCellStyle, colorStyle });
            this.gcMultiRow1.NamedCellStyles["AlternatingColumnsDefaultCellStyle"] = combinedCellStyle1;
        }

VB.NET

Private Sub SetBorderToAlternatingColumns(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles setBorder.Click
        Dim borderCellStyle As New CellStyle()
        borderCellStyle.Border = New RoundedBorder(LineStyle.Thin, Color.Gray, 0.5F)

        Dim colorStyle As New CellStyle()
        colorStyle.BackColor = Color.Yellow

        'The combinedCellStyle1 will merge borderCellStyle and AlternatingColumnsDefaultCellStyle.
        Dim combinedCellStyle1 As New CombinedCellStyle()
        combinedCellStyle1.Items.AddRange(New CellStyle() {borderCellStyle, colorStyle})
        Me.gcMultiRow1.NamedCellStyles("AlternatingColumnsDefaultCellStyle") = combinedCellStyle1
    End Sub
